The River Jordan is a story about a man who, despite his best efforts, continues to disappoint the women in his family and ultimately becomes homeless. This new play investigates what it means to be homeless and sheds light on the fact that every single person on the street, or in a shelter, under a bridge, or in a box, whom we pass and deem as “less than”, comes from somewhere. They belong to someone. Steppenwolf ensemble member Alana Arenas directs this staged reading.
